  1. @@thisfathasgot2go I'm obsessed! I got the one for extra dry skin and it worked like a charm! Just goes to show you don't have to spend a fortune to get results!
  2. @@Margie122 No, I've never looked for anything like that. I don't need it just yet. My only problem has been super dry,itchy , flaky skin on my face which is bad enough! It's taken me years to find this!
  3. I'm adding this to the topic of WL because since I've lost weight my skin has become even MORE dry on my face, I didn't even think that was possible. I've tried many products from luxury skin creams like "LA MER" ($170 wasted, I was desperate) to Walmart brands. I've tried face peels, microdermabrasion treatments, face masks ect...I have dry flaky skin around my nose, chin, and eyebrows. It's ridiculous! I've been doing research and found these products, both over the counter and both at Walmart. I figured with all the great reviews why not. I've spent a small fortune already. I am so incredibly thankful that I did because I have FINALLY found a product that works!! I'm still amazed! My skin has been flake free for a full month! I have never had a product work so successfully on my skin. Now that winter and cooler weather is upon us I figured I'd share with others who may be a flaky skin sufferer. Here's to flawless winter skin!
  4. @@kranky813 My daughter said that to me last night when we were out jogging! I do so have a butt! It's not big but it's there! Guess I'm going to have to do stupid squats or lunges. Yikes!! I was unaware that I lived with the "butt monitors". How do you shut that alarm off?!
  5. I have no idea but I've lost 110 lbs in 10 months so I guess 11 lbs if you do it that way BUT it's not accurate. It varies from week to week. DO NOT use my numbers as YOUR guide. You will be different. NO comparing!!!
  6. @@Bean80128 Oh don't even get me started on the sag bags! I went from a 40 DDD to a 32 mild D depending on how much I can stuff in a cup. It's sad My butt and boobs took of for greener pasture.
  7. Well here's what I ate yesterday....It won't all go on one page.
  8. @@Linaka No it's not as thick. I use the coconut almond milk for mine. I like the coconut flavor! It won't be thick like PP though.
  9. And my favorite... Sipsey: Oh it don't make no kind of sense. Big ol' ox like Grady won't sit next to a colored child. But he eats eggs- shoot right outta chicken's ass!
  10. Nobody and I mean NOBODY is coming at my crotch with any sharp instruments! I had all c-sections so nothing's came out of there that wasn't suppose to come back out. This whole thread reminds me of the scene in "Fried Green tomatoes" where she's (Kathy Bates) is crying because she can't even look at her own vagina with a hand held mirror. If you haven't seen that movie you have no idea what I'm talking about.....you also haven't lived. Evelyn Couch: I can't even look at my own vagina! Ninny Threadgoode: Well I can't help you on that one honey
  11. @@Sajijoma I love how they add "rejuvenating" to everything! It makes having your vag dissected sound so young and youthful. I'm sure they will be playing soothing music and have aroma therapy candles burning while they're cutting off your bits!!
  12. Salmon IF you cut the skin off AND the dark brown streak it has down the middle.
  13. Oh I've been in the oh so elusive "guys room" and I got yelled at! Pretty much scratched my eyes out.
  14. I wrote out a list and took it. I wanted to know... Will I have a catheter? Jp drain? What Kind of sutures will I have What size Bougie will be used (size the stomach will be) What type of pain management will be used while in the hospital and home. Will I get a Prescription for a PPI (acid blocker) Put me on the private room list! (Got it) I'm sure there were more because I took a sheet with me and checked them off as we went through. @
  15. @@4MRB4PHOTO You're most welcome! Now you know how I feel what I see a foot long wiener....hotdog.
  16. Because about 70% of the body is made up of water! And maybe because the nutritionist hates me and knows the struggle I have with obtaining that much fluid and finds my daily struggle comical? I don't know but I'd go with answer number one. Super annoying cells needing fluid to function...blah blah blah!
  17. @@Tssiemer1 Fear not...I've yet to see a "pretty" jina! They all kinda look like a meat sandwich on a hoagie gone wrong. Pick a side....
  18. Umm there's a plastic surgery procedure for that........I wish I had a little more padding on the ole mons! I'm flat and boney. I'm quite fragile nowadays! I think I'm going to get one of those donuts people with hemorrhoids sit on and cushion myself for " monkey business" times. Just stick it right there in the front! That my friends would be sexxxxxay!!! I almost positive I would never feel the touch of a man again
  19. "Show me state" Miss Missouri!!! Ok I just had a Miss America moment....sorry, not sorry!!
  20. My very first solids just happened to land on Thanksgiving day! Pretty cool so I had a piece of turnkey. Tiny piece.
  21. @@SeahawksFan Isn't that fun! I use to wear a size 9 on my ring finger now I'm a 5 1/2! All these years I thought I was "big boned" nope, I was just fat!! Congratulations!!
  22. @@LMolina1987 Most Walmarts carry it. I've included a picture so you know what to look for if you do decide to get it. It's good to have on hand. I don't have any issues but if I haven't gone in two days I drink it to be safe. Especially in the beginning when you're eating so much protein. Anesthesia tends to make the bowls sluggish also.
